Air Time

The absence of any Doctor Who DVD review or other article of interest on this blog yesterday can be readily explained by my own absence. I was away from my computer, with an important media appointment to keep.

Yes, friend, gentleman and fellow pub-quizmeister Retro Robnoxious Spooner invited me in for a guest spot on his Sunday afternoon radio show at Source FM, based in Falmouth.

Unaccustomed as I am to media exposure, a fun time was had by all and I have to thank Rob for being such a great host and creating such a terrific relaxed atmosphere.

Rob has also very kindly sent me a link to the full recording of the event - so I'm posting it here, for your listening pleasure.

(Approx 28 mins in is where you'll first hear me and William Shatner does a great version of Pulp's Common People at around the 44 min mark.)

Of course, the day also happened to be Mother's Day and amid all the fun we had chatting about books, Evil, Doctor Who and sci-fi in general, there was a serious point at the heart of the proceedings.

We were spreading the word about our Evil vs. Cancer campaign (see our Evil UnLtd blog for details or here on Prefect Slog). Hope the listeners had as good a time as we did and fingers crossed we'll have won a few more sales in aid of Cancer Research UK.

About Me

Born in Penzance in 1967. From the age of about three I was probably dreaming of writing for Doctor Who. Certainly it wasn't a case of just watching it: I'd go to bed with all sorts of adventures and story possibilities buzzing around in my head. From the age of eleven, I knew, whenever any aunts and uncles asked the "What do you want to do when you grow up?" question, the stock replies of jet pilot, train driver, astronaut were never going to be good enough for me. "I want to be a writer", I always said. And, what do you know, I am.
